Temeraire post-poned

I think everyone who was at the first book discussion for Temeraire's Exploits already knows that I've had to re-schedule the 2nd book discussion. But in case you weren't there, or haven't heard...yes, I've had to push the next discussion for Throne of Jade back to March 13th. I'm really sorry about this; I hope the change doesn't create scheduling conflicts for anyone planning to come. It was just one of those unfortunate, unavoidable things.

Maybe this will be a good thing and even more people will be able to join us for this second discussion. For those, like me, already finished with the book and eagerly waiting for the discussion, I have a small sop to your patience. If you haven't already read it, Naomi Novik has a lovely little Teneraire story available on her website. The action of the short story, "Feast or Famine," is even referenced in Throne of Jade. Having already read "Feast or Famine" I got a real kick out of recognizing the references to it in Throne of Jade.

Hope I'll see you here on March 13th!

A good friend just told me January 16th is Appreciate a Dragon Day and my first book talk for Naomi Novik's alternative history/dragon series is... January 16th. I wish I could claim I cleverly planned it, but unfortunately not. I'll just have to settle for great timing.

It looks like Appreciate a Dragon Day was started by author Donita K. Paul, but if you google 'dragon appreciation day,' you'll discover other days throughout the year when you can pay homage to these wonderful mythical beasts.

Hope I see you Wednesday evening. I just finished rereading His Majesty's Dragon and I loved it as much the second time around as I did the first time.
